The history of direct confrontations at this stadium reveals a balance, with both teams earning 2 wins each in their last 4 matches. However, in their most recent match here on 22-09-2023, Nice secured a 1-0 victory, with Jérémie Boga netting the only goal. It’s important to consider the home and away performance as Monaco has shown varying results when playing at home versus away.

Team analysis: Monaco

With 14 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses, the home team is currently sitting in 3rd position, having accumulated 47 points. In their last outing, they defeated Angers Sco 2-0, following a previous draw against Toulouse, which ended 1-1. Monaco tends to perform better at home, with their last 30 matches yielding 3 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses as visitors, scoring 20 and conceding 26 goals, compared to 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 home losses, with 37 goals scored and 19 conceded. Over their last 10 home matches in the league, Monaco has recorded 7 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses, amassing 22 points out of a possible 30. Though their defensive solidity has been questionable, conceding goals in 8 out of their last 10 matches, their attack remains potent, managing to score at least once in all of those matches. Out of 26 games in this competition, they conceded the first goal 8 times but successfully turned around 3 of those matches.

Monaco heads into this match following a 2-0 victory, with goals from Mika Biereth and Maghnes Akliouche. The home side typically employs a tactical system of 4-3-3, promoting a faster and more dynamic transition play. In this formation, Eliese Ben Seghir, Maghnes Akliouche, and Mika Biereth are tasked with stretching the opposition’s backline. When venturing forward, the team prefers to utilise the right flank, benefitting from Vanderson’s overlapping runs from the back. Absent from this match are Jordan Tueze, Soungoutou Magassa, and Folarin Balogun due to injuries.

Team analysis: Nice

The visiting team is currently placed 4th, with 47 points garnered from 13 wins, 8 draws, and 5 losses. In their penultimate match, they suffered a 0-2 defeat at home to Olympique Lyonnais, followed by a 1-1 draw against Auxerre in their most recent match. Nice’s performance is relatively unaffected by the home factor, as their results are quite similar irrespective of the venue; over the last 30 matches, they have 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses as visitors with 21 goals scored and 21 conceded. When playing at home, they boast 7 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses, with 24 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the league, Nice has earned 16 points from the last 10 away games, achieving 4 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses. The team has let in goals during 7 of their last 10 matches, indicating some defensive lapses; however, their attack has been consistent, scoring in 9 of their last 10 league games. From 26 matches in this league, they have only managed to turn around the score just 2 times when conceding the first goal. Notably, out of their last 13 away fixtures, 10 of their 22 goals have been scored between the 16th and 30th minutes.

Nice comes into this match after a 1-1 draw against Auxerre, with Evann Guessand scoring their only goal. The visitors generally adopt a 3-4-3 formation, focusing on quick transitions down the wings. Key offensive players include Sofiane Diop, Evann Guessand, and Gaetan Labor, who aim to exploit spaces and surprise the defence with their pace and finishing abilities. Midfielder Hicam Boudoui plays a vital role in orchestrating offensive plays and controlling the pace of the match. Melvin Bard is unavailable due to suspension.
